Photography is generally allowed for personal use, but flash may be restricted, and discretion is needed during services.
Photography for personal, non-commercial use is commonly permitted inside the Nieuwe Kerk. Visitors are encouraged to capture the architectural details, stained glass, and overall ambiance. However, certain restrictions usually apply: the use of flash photography might be prohibited to protect historical elements or avoid disturbing others. During religious services or special events, photography should be avoided or conducted with extreme discretion and without flash to maintain respect for the proceedings and participants. Always look for signage or ask staff if unsure about specific rules.
